BiAir®
Product Description
The Air Spring Isolator BiAir® consists of either a steel or cast aluminum body whose air volume is enclosed by a thin-walled, flexible and pressure-resistant rolling diaphragm. The piston is seated on this diaphragm & is pushed into the air volume.
This design causes highly effective vibration isolation. In order to obtain as high a dampening effect as possible, the air space is split into two chambers (load and dampening volume) that are connected by an air tube. The amount of dampening can be easily changed by the adjustable valve located on the outside of the air spring. As the load on the air spring changes, air is forced through the bypass valve creating friction. This friction creates up to an 18% dampening effect. Additional safety valves protect the rolling diaphragm from getting damaged by over inflation.

Range of Application
Highly effective vibration isolation of sensitive measuring (CMM) and testing machines, fine machining plant, as well as optical and electronic equipment. Another important range of application is the vibration isolated foundation of vehicle, motor and other performance testers.
BiAir® Air Spring isolators are extremely well suited for the isolation of foundations e.g. equivalent machine loads.
Air springs with higher max. loads as well as air springs with lower natural frequencies can be supplied upon request!

Advantages compared with conventional steel springs
BiAir® Air Spring Isolators with level control are an active system. The machine foundation level consistency will always be preserved! Automatic leveling adjustment.

BILZ level controller systems
Level control is an important part of an optimally functioning air spring system. The automatic level controller can be utilized to overcome the problem associated with load changes in air spring isolated machines, which can result in tilting of the machine.
The height of the specific elements BiAir® or FAEBI® can be controlled by changing the air pressure in the air spring isolators. Quick inflation or deflation will hold the machines level even if their center of gravity keeps changing.

System components
Each system consists of 3 position sensors, 3 electro-pneumatic control valves, one control unit (digital computer logic), the pressure regulator and filter units. Even the most severe conditions are mastered by the electro-pneumatic positioner. It is used mainly where high reset precision and extremely short reaction times are required. Any deviation (difference between desired value and actual value) from the desired height (desired value) of the air spring isolator is measured at a precision of up to 1/100 mm (10 microns) accuracy by means of position sensors. In the control unit, these electronic signals will then be processed and the air spring elements will be inflated or deflated accordingly for level equalization via the pneumatic control valves.
